Man Flynlow, now that I've seen a shot from the inside of your car both towards the front and the back of your car I'm not sure how you can see ANYTHING when you drive! Just playin' brah. How tall are you though?

Your car is awesome! How loud is your exhaust in person both inside and outside the car? It sounds sweet.

Thank you very much

The exhaust is nice, I am happy with it. It came on the car when I bought it but I kept it cause it sounds sweet. At idle, its not loud, but its very low and rumbly which is what I like. When I step on it, its pretty loud. Inside the car, you can hear it a little and feel it shake a little. Then again, when I step on it it definately gets louder.

Sweet pic IROCthe5.7L... Theres not much I love more than going out cruising on a beautiful clear night with the car freshly waxed and seeing the street lights reflect off my hood- and in my case with the t-tops off

Them track pictures are sweet. What track is that?? And if you got more, I wouldnt mind seeing them.

The woman who drives my car is 5'3"-5'4"ish, all legs too. She sits on a couch cushin to drive. I dont think a cowl hood would play to well since the blisters blocked enough view.
